<div class="question">What does the BassImpact™ slider do?</div>
<div class="answer" style="background-position:left 12px !important;margin-top: 0;cursor: default;">
<p style="font-weight: normal;">The BassImpact™ slider serves different purposes based on the MODE you are in. For Game, Music, and Movie mode, the BassImpact slider determines the strength of the pulses you feel. Move the slider towards the OFF position for softer pulses. Move the slider towards the MAX position for stronger pulses.<br />
For Shooter, Fighting, and Racing mode, the strength of the pulses is fixed. In these modes, the slider determines when BassImpact™ will be triggered. By moving the slider towards the MAX position, BassImpact™ will be triggered more often, therefore you will feel more pulses.</p><p><a class="top" href="#backTop">Back to top</a></p></div>
